Chapter 223: A Terrifying Guess

know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!For the first time, a change appeared on his face, which had been as still as ancient well water.The Law!The Guardian didn't expect that a littl...In a certain dark place, it seemed as if the shadowy aspects of all beings converged there.

A stone statue stood there quietly, as if it had existed since time immemorial.

Suddenly.

The stone statue trembled for a moment, and crimson eyes shot out from within the statue, causing the surrounding darkness to boil.

"Divine ability!"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

“At the very least, it’s a divine power of the middle-three ranks!”

“This world has fallen, why would such divine power appear It's really strange—”

A low, murmured voice, like a demon's whisper, filled with evil intent.

The stone statue knew.

It is not something that anyone can create, the divine ability of the third rank.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

He also knows very well how this world is run.

It's still understandable if there are three grades of divine abilities, but if there are three middle grades of divine abilities, then things get a bit complicated.

"Never mind."

“Then let’s wait a bit longer. It’s only a mid-grade divine ability, it can’t change the situation for now. Even if it were a high-grade divine ability, what could it do With their advanced demonic beast strength, how could they possibly overturn the situation”

When the voice reached this point, it gradually subsided into silence.

His supernatural powers are formidable.

It also depends on who it falls on.

Even high-level demons, even if they possess earth-shattering supernatural powers, pose no real threat to the strong.

If it hadn't noticed its own power being personified and destroyed, the statue wouldn't have bothered with so much.

Not only were Tiandao Sect and the people of Dayue attacked, but even those like Bei Mingwang were also attacked.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

Luckily.

The primary objective of the Great Zhou was to eliminate Wang Xiao, so their force attacking Bei Ming Wang wasn't very strong. When powerful figures from the Demon Suppression Division arrived, they were able to resolve the situation effectively.

In addition.

Other parties were also attacked to varying degrees.

Some were attacked by the Zhou Dynasty and barbarians, while others were entirely internal conflicts within the martial arts world.

As for the former.

The Demon Suppression Division will take action to resolve this.

But as for the latter, it's just turning a blind eye.

Matters of the rivers and lakes, the Demon Suppression Division has always been reluctant to intervene easily.

As long as it didn't involve the laws of the Qin Dynasty, they mostly turned a blind eye.

But.

The power capable of capturing martial arts prowess possesses strength that is not to be underestimated.

Even though there were ambushes, the forces that truly succeeded in stealing martial arts were ultimately a very small number.

The entire Southern Gloom Manor was in complete chaos.

However.

This turmoil didn't last long. After various factions withdrew from Nanyou Mansion, peace was restored.

Inside the Demon Suppressing Division.

After slaughtering the terrifying phantom, Shen Changqing went to other places and killed several powerful demonic beings. He then stopped moving easily.

In the courtyard.

Tiānkuí lay there, its powerful aura surging like waves upon its body.

That aura was very powerful. Although it wasn't quite at the level of a peak Grandmaster, it wasn't far off.

Shen Changqing glanced at Tian Kui, his thoughts falling on what had just happened.

“That powerful phantom, if I'm not mistaken, should be the means of a strong expert, just like my blood essence incarnation.”

From this, it can be seen that the price paid for such a split incarnation would undoubtedly be significant.

He had been in the Town Demon Division for so many years, and he had never heard of a demon transforming into a human.

The sinister aura emanating from that figure ahead was almost so thick it could be cut with a knife. Its power clearly originated from a powerful demonic beast.

Once empowered, its power rivals that of high-ranking demons.

You can imagine.

The true form of that demon wouldn't be as simple as a mere Great Demon.

Immediately.

Suddenly, the name popped into Shen Changqing's mind.

Please provide me with the text you'd like translated. I can help translate it into English while keeping the HTML tags intact.

Demon Saint!

This guess was made by him based on his own circumstances.

It's a very simple principle.

As a Grandmaster, his strength was comparable to the peak of high-level demon. His blood essence incarnation was only equivalent to the level of a low-level demon.

It's not right.

The power of blood essence transformation has not yet reached the realm of low-level demons.

As for strength, he could only barely hold his own against low-level demons.

But.

This is a test.

There is also a major issue here.

That is to say, although Shen Changqing's strength ranks among the top in high-level demon kings, strictly speaking, he hasn't truly reached the peak within the Grandmaster realm.

Tenth Stage of the Soul.

>

Tenth Stage of the Divine Thunder Golden Body

Only when both reach the tenth level can they truly be considered at the pinnacle of a Grandmaster.

If he waits until his cultivation realm truly reaches the peak of its current level, then the power of the blood essence incarnation should be classified as a low-level demon.

So.

The essence of blood transformation, compared to actual power, is two levels lower.

This way.

Then you can use this method to calculate the true strength of the entity behind that phantom.

Higher-level demons, promoted two levels up, become Demon Saints.

And.

That demon saint is very likely not an ordinary demon saint, but a powerful one among demon saints.

Thinking of the existence of the demon saint, Shen Changqing's eyes deepened.

"How many Demon Saints exist between heaven and earth is still a question. Furthermore, whether the Demon Saint behind that illusory figure was the one who attacked the Qin Dynasty is also open to debate."

But Yang Yue, as the supreme martial artist of the Zhou Dynasty, had surprisingly transformed into a demon.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Back then, during the Zhou dynasty, it's possible that it had already become a nation ruled by demons and evil spirits!"

I thought about that possibility.

He couldn't help but gasp.

>

As for how many people there were in the Great Zhou, Shen Changqing wasn't quite sure.

From the population of the Qin Dynasty, one can infer the population of the Zhou Dynasty.

In terms of national strength.

The Qin Dynasty was the strongest, but the Zhou Dynasty was also not weak. Even with a smaller population, it was still in the hundreds of millions.

If the Great Zhou fell into a demonic kingdom, then the human race of Great Zhou would be afraid to become food for demons.

Billions of people.

They are all the food of demons.

As soon as I thought of this.

Shen Changqing shook his head again.

“That’s impossible. If the Great Zhou truly fell to demonic influence, with all its people enslaved by demons, there wouldn't be a single shred of news leaking out.”

This time, among the sects participating in the auction, there are also some martial arts forces from the Great Zhou.

This way, it's even less likely that any information would be leaked.

Perhaps—

The Zhou Dynasty has already been infiltrated by demons, but it hasn't been fully exposed yet. More likely, the true rulers of the imperial court in the present day Zhou Dynasty are not humans...

Shen Changqing thought a lot for a moment.

Any guess is possible.

As the head coach of the Imperial Guard of the Great Zhou dynasty, and a master at the peak of martial arts, Yang Yue had fallen to demonic influence. To say that the court was not infiltrated by demons would be impossible.

Here is the translation of the provided text:

And.

While the barbarians were attacking Dahuang Mansion, the Great Zhou dynasty was also putting all its effort into attacking Lu'an Mansion.

Before that time.

He still thought it was a collaboration between the Zhou Dynasty and demons, or some kind of deal they had struck.

>

But now that Yang Yue incident has occurred, Shen Changqing can't help but wonder if Great Zhou isn't cooperating with demonic beings or reaching some kind of agreement, but completely submitting to the demonic side.

Wait a minute!

Then Shen Changqing thought of something else again.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"If the Zhou Dynasty had allied itself with demons and the court was controlled by the demon clan, then what about the barbarians Is it possible that they too were completely absorbed by the demons"

"If this guess is true, then the power of the demon clan would be too vast!"

>

His eyes were fixed and serious.

The demon clan was powerful by nature, capable of creating disasters in various countries. This forced the nations to passively defend themselves, lacking any ability to counterattack.

In this case.

If the Zhou Dynasty and all the barbarians were secretly annexed by the demon clan.

Then——

The strength of the demonic tribe will surely be terrifyingly powerful.

In the current era, the Great Qin possesses no challengers.

All things considered.

The Qin dynasty was powerful, but its power was also limited.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

One can deal with demonic calamities, barbarian tribes, and even the Zhou dynasty.

If it's just a single issue, the Qin Dynasty could handle it.

But when the three of them combine, there's absolutely no way.

Have you not seen that in order to stop the Zhou dynasty's advance, the Qin dynasty even resorted to seeking aid from Daliang and Dayue

And—

If the demonic clan truly merged with Great Zhou and the Barbarians, then what about Great Liang and Great Yue Is it possible that they have already been infiltrated by demons Even Great Qin could be a possibility.

"If that's really the case, then things are going to be troublesome!"

Shén Chángqīng was taken aback.

He thought the problem was serious, but not life-threatening.

But when you think about it more deeply, things aren't that simple.

If demons possess the ability to infiltrate and control the Zhou Dynasty, then they would also have the power to control Liang, Yue, and even Qin.

But.

The thought had just arisen when Shen Changqing dismissed it.

As for the others, he couldn't be sure, but at least Qin should not have been infiltrated by demons yet.

If the Qin Empire were infiltrated by demons, then the first thing to do would be to disband the Demon Suppression Division.

After all.

The existence of the Demon Suppression Department is a great obstacle for the demon clan.

Over the years, the number of demons slain by the Demon Suppression Division is unknown.

Even if the demonic clan doesn't care about the deaths of those weak demons, they wouldn't allow the Demon Suppression Bureau to exist just for their amusement.

So.

This guess has no basis in fact.

“Dongfang Zhao once said that the demonic forces appearing in the world are not necessarily the entirety of the demon race. Demons come from beyond the heavens, and what have entered this world now are very likely just vanguard troops.”

> After the restrictions of heaven and earth are lifted, more demons will enter here.

Thus, the demons entering here must have their own purpose. Wasting time out of sheer malice is not what they desire.

Shen Changqing pondered inwardly.

From a hundred years ago, when the Yasha Saint attacked the capital city, it was clear that demons truly intended to destroy the Qin Dynasty.

It was only because Emperor Qin was too powerful that the demons' plans were foiled.

Thinking about it this way.

The possibility of Qin being infiltrated by demons is low. Similarly, the likelihood of Dayue and Daliang being infiltrated is also low.

If it really got infiltrated.

Both sides also attacked Dà Qín with all their might, just like Dà Zhōu. Even if Dà Qín were incredibly powerful, there was absolutely no way they could withstand it.ed the Absolute Domain.Only those who stepped into the realm of the Excalibur saw themselves entering a void-like space, where phantom opponents materialized and clashed with each other.“Elder Li’s me...
